Phew... I feel queezy.
New JWT 700bb is bought and paid for. Now we play the waiting game! Now, new fuel rails, injectors and a fuel pump on order. Going to start a thread on it but won't do that until everything arrives and I can start going through the steps. The guys at Progressive Automotive here in Victoria have agreed to allow me to go through different stages with them and take photos and so on so everyone can share in the joy and or pain I go through.
Oh yes... and I got debadged today. Bad news- paint lost a lot of pigment from the adhesive on the letters- polish alone wasn't going to do it. Hello new paint job. Saving that for when I get the OEM spoiler put on. So if you're thinking about debadging... well... prepare for a 500 paintjob if you're running anything LR. Actually, MXwizzard from here also says on his white (what's the white code again, don't remember) 07 that he had something of the same problem. Be warned!
Sigh.

I have thought about that by the time I get the TT kit on I would be in GTR territory $$$$ wise. So maybe a GTR I have been thinking of 4 doors so i can haul the kids easier new M3 sedans are nice, ISF, RS4 if red35 gets a new car i will get the same as him....or just keep my car and finish it and shoot for the 800whp i had planned for in the first place.

For some reason I have never liked M5s a used M6 is nice but back to two doors, the fact that the closest BMW dealerships are Edmonton are Calgary would make getting a BMW serviced a PITA.
I will keep my car for at least another year the wife informed me she is the next one to get a new car, If I get her an RS4 then I can slowly take it over I would love to buy her a GTR... surprise honey but I am pretty sure she wouldn't even let me drive it out of spite if I pulled that on her
Me too, it likely lacked a witty retort anyway!!! **waits for phone to ring**
